Happy 4th Birthday Ethan!! 3 mo old


I can't believe my baby boy is 4 years old! We love Ethan so much! He has brought so much joy into our lives. I love how he tries to make us laugh with his silly faces and voices. He is such a great big brother and loves Alec so much. He is definitely a momma's boy. He has to have me sing to him every night before bed. He tries to protect me every chance he can get.
He is full of life!
Happy 4th birthday Ethan Joshua!!

Mr. Mischievous!
I was in the kitchen doing the dishes and I noticed that Alec was being really quite. So everyone knows that that spells trouble!! I came around the corner and this is what I found....... He is obsessed with toilet paper and the toilet!



He of course thinks it's so funny!!

New Year's Eve 2008
Ethan wanted to start out new years eve early and throw some "pops" fireworks.
Unfortunately the ground was way too cold and none of them would pop! He still had fun!
We went out to eat with some of our friends at Pizza Factory to celebrate.

Josh and Ethan just relaxing.
We told Ethan he had to go to bed but then his friend's (Emma & Ellie) came over before we put him to bed and it was over. He stayed up till midnight!

Fun in the Snow!
Josh and Ethan went sledding during the Christmas break.
Ethan was scared of the big hill after going down because the snow blew up in his face. So they stuck with the smaller hills!



Ethan and Cade playing in the snow in our front yard!


I was in the house and I looked down from our balcony and saw this! I thought it was so cute and had to run down and get a picture!

This reminds me of the scene in the movie 'A Christmas Story' When Randy is laying in the snow yelling- "I can't get up!"

Christmas Day 2008
Christmas morning our boys slept till 8:30 am which was nice. Ethan ran downstairs and was so excited that Santa came! We opened presents and got ready to go to our families houses. After Ethan openend our presents he said. "Dad, Santa hooked us up!" We were laughing so hard!
Ethan loved Christmas this year! He kept saying over and over, "I must have been a good boy mom because Santa got me what I wanted!"

Josh surprised me with a new Temple Dress!


Alec enjoying a little Christmas breakfast

Alec didn't quite get how to open all of the presents but he was loving his new cars he got!


We went over to the Rasmussen house next. Our boys got spoiled!


Grandpa Rasmussen and Ethan got matching blankets!
